I just moved from California to Las Vegas!

And I lived about an hour and a half away from the Bay Area!

He will only be there signing pre-sold books on Sat June 6th from 2-3:30 pm (not too late to get a book, we still have a few, the are only $39.95). The exclusive SF Nordies set is $75 and AMAZING!

My name is Sherriann, ask for me at the below ext 1411or ext 1080. It's so funny, I have been meaning to post about this event but keep getting home from work too late and came on tonight cause I didn't want to put it off any longer, and here it is! LOL.

Cool! Sounds like a lot of fun! Thanks for the additional info.. and 25 of his international makeup artistry team?

I'd so like to take a NARS blush and have him sign it

although he will probably only sign the books..

 

[Krasevayadancer]

Sigh, why can't he come to NYC? I would be ALL OVER that!

 

[barbie.doll]

Someone take me with them!!!

I just called and ordered the Nars loves San Francisco box. It has 4 vintage products in it. The Nars rep gave me the deets on the colors
Blush/ Highlighter:
Golden Gate Bridge (Gold)

Eye Shadow Duo:
Haight and Ashbury ( light matte grey/ metallic beige)

Single Eyeshadow:
Angel Island ( Lilac with sparkles)

Nail polish:
Alamo ( Rose Champagne)

The box is $75 and is on sale for this week only

I thought that the blush would be Goldfinger but will have to see in person next week.
And yes, I will be swatching

 

[TheManda]

He will be making PA's in Chicago and NY as well. I know he will be in Chicago on June 20th but not sure on NY!

 

[Temptasia]

I'd love to meet him!

 

[mandycd]

OMG!!! I called the SF Nars counter, and they are still selling the Nars Love SF kit, YAY!!!! (I called June 13th). I am so freak'n excited to get it (shipping is free), THANK YOU to everyone on this post, I had no idea this was even going on!!

 

[barbie.doll]

^ Girl, go meet Nars and show him your collection!

He'd be so proud!!

 

[mandycd]

Chicago too?!?!?!? Its's gonna be an expensive summer if he keeps releasing limited edition sets, LOL

(Chicago is june 20th at Barneys)

You don't need to call for this one, here's the link: NARS NARS Loves Chicago Set at Barneys New York

I think the E/s Duo is the re-release of Marienbad??? I can't tell what the other are from the pic.

 

[greatscott2000]

i just received my box today and I love it!
Golden Gate Bridge is what I would imagine the Ibiza Multiple to be like but in powder form. Its a great solid gold color that works as perfect hi-lighter like Albatross and Luster but its bolder.

The standout for me is Haight and Ashbury. The left is a soft Matte grey, the right is a metallic sage green. I'm going to experiment using the metallic sage as a liner on my lower lid.

The Chicago set looks great too, though I can't buy all these LE's.
I think its really fun NARS is doing this!!

 

[mandycd]

I got my Nars Loves Chicago and it is amazing!! The single eye shadow is a re-release of Night Bird. I haven't tried to pin point the eyeshadow duo... from the picture I thought the lighter side was a light lavender color, but it is actually a soft pink. It is a fabulous duo. My FAVORITE is the blush. It is matte and the best I can describe it is a cross between amour & gilda... a true peach color. LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!

This sounds like such a cool event, I wish I was in CA! Wrong side of the country for me though :-(

It looks like the colors of "Ireland". That was one of my favorite NARS duos. Ireland was released with Artic and Babylon in a fall collection for ... 2005? 2004? I can't remember.

Glad you are enjoying your set!!
